THE ZX5-S HIGH OUTPUT SAWING & MACHINING CENTER FROM STUGA for 800 plus windows per week. This is the top selling automatic sawing & machining line at Stuga with many reference sites.
A very high output sophisticated sawing & machining center developed out of the knowledge learned from manufacturing OVER 200 sawing & machining centers over more than twenty years.
The ZX5-S is the fastest, most accurate and most reliable Stuga ever built.
Launched at the 2017 Fit Show the ZX5-S includes ‘Tru-Loc’ gripper system, ‘Y-drive’ saw for very accurate accurate ‘Y’ notch preps, tool breakage detection and profile recognition.
The Tru-Loc gripper system grips on both sawing and machining modules in exactly the same position to ensure accuracy on both sides of the machine. This also means that the ‘Y-drive’ system can be used on the saw module to make both ‘Y’ notch preps with perfect accuracy every time. Moving this function to the saw also increases the overall output. The tenacity of this gripper system allows Stuga to increase power on many functions without the risk of gripper slip thereby further increasing output.
The ZX5-S infeed pre-measures bars to avoid loading delays and both infeed and outfeed employ roller beds for smoother and quicker throughput.
Every possible saw cut and prep can be produced on the this machining center. This includes forty five and ninety degree cuts, ‘V’ and ‘Y’ notches, trickle vents, drainage, pressure equalisation, upstand removal, espag preps, dog bolts, tilt and turn preps, door locks and hinges, letterboxes, spot preps and anything else that can be required. Notching is on both sides of any frame of transom profile using saw blades and not milling cutters. Many centers cannot notch on both sides of a profile which can be very inconvenient and usually isn’t explained to the unwary customer.
Three hundred and sixty degree rotary tooling system allows for unlimited machining possibilities and an unlimited number of profile systems that can be loaded to one machine and run at the same time. This rotary system is considerably more flexible and much faster than fixed heads partly because the cutters are much closer to the profile and are positioned as the profile is still moving ready to cut as soon as it stops. The rotating movement of the rotary head is extremely fast but also only has to move small distances between operations as the software optimises these movements.
Separate sawing and machining modules working in harmony ensure that delays caused by prepping and cutting waiting for each other are reduced to a minimum or even eliminated. The ‘U’-shape layout is much more operator friendly than long in-line layouts.
The ZX5-S is capable of producing between 800 and 1,000 or more windows per week. The ZX5-S has three more working heads than the ZX5-E (was ZX3) and an enhanced output saw unit that can easily cope with stated output volumes. Notes! We can prove to you why a single saw blade is always faster than two saw blades. Claimed output volumes are guaranteed by Stuga.
